Pickens flume
Sarah Emery of South Dakota a
cousin of Theodore is the purchaser in
tho other deal which involves 100 acres
of tho Marion Plummer ranch at Perry

1903 Mr Plummer still owns about 400
acres more in that vicinity On the land

McCOOK RED WILLOW COUNTY NEBRASKA FRIDAY EVENING MAY 30
Laborers For the Beet Fields
The Tribune is reminded that the
demand for workers in the sugar beet
fields is now urgent The continued
rains have given the bf ets a great im
petus and the work of thinning weeding
and cultivating is demanding early at
tention With the close of school this
week there will doubtless be a number
of children available for the work men
tioned and The Tribune hopes that
they will rise equal to the occasion and
will respond to the demand The acre
age this year is much larger than it
was last year amounting to about GOO
acres and this amount of land in beets
will require a large number of workers
Tho supply of local labor is limited at
best hardly equal to the demand from
other sources and if the acreage of
sugar beets shall receive proper cultiva
tion at the right time it will be neces
sary for the older school children as is
being done in other parts of the state
where sugar beets are being cultivated to
onter the field The work is not heavy
and good wages can be secured
Should be Encouraged
The Tribune believes that the city
council should eucourage tho move now
being made to secure for McCook a
library As we stated in a recent issue
about SG00 can be raised by a levy al
lowed and authorized by law This
amount will secure the services of a li
brarian and besides provido a fund with
which to materially increase the library
annually The cooperation of the school
board has been secured which will at
once make available from that source
800 volumes Additions can be secured
from private sources We understand
that quarters are available in the court
house for the library We have no doubt
but that a library with considerably over
1000 volumes can be started at once if
tho city council will make the levy and
take tho matter in charge as a city enter
prise appoint a library board etc We
hope they will do so at once It is a
noble enterprise and worthy the co
operation of the city council

Memorial Sunday
The Baptist church was crowded last
Sunday morning to hear the Memorial
services held therein on that occasion
The sermon was preached by Rev L M
Grigsby of the Methodist church and
was much enjoyed for its vigor and fresh
ness and originality He drew a picture
of the history of this latest and greatest
child of liberty and credited its greatness
and glory to the fact that it was conceiv
ed in religion and born in righteousness
Tbe choir of the church provided a num
ber of special and excellent musical
selections Rev Frank W Dean of the
Congregational church assisted in the
ssrvice in the physical disability of the
pastor Rev G L White The members

Sermon to the Graduating Class
Despite the severe rain of last Sunday
night the Congregational church was
filled to overflowing on the occasion of
the preaching of the sermon to the mem
bers of the graduating class by Rev
Frank W Dean The sermon carried
the idea that real true success every
good success must be premised upon
usefulness righteousness and religion
and held up before the members of the
class this high ideal in earnest simplic
ity It was an excellent discourse A
special sextette supplied an enjoyable
musical feature Rev L M Grigsby of
the Methodist church assisted in the
services which were inspiring in every
detail
